This had some details as to the things that could go wrong from an
initial happy install of t-mobile, to something terrible.
We’ve observed growing variability on some TMHI setups from our fleet, and it
seems there is a correlation to usage growth on a single tower. Seems neighbors
talk to hear other after all ;-)
And yes, horrible bufferbloat on these variable capacity links.
The author switched to verizon, but what guarantees of continued
reliability does one have?
It seems none ATM, as it really depends on user density vs tower capacity. Woe
to those that share a tower with a busy highway, ‘rush hour’ likely means low
capacity and even higher latencies.
As another anecdote:
In the German I city where I live, Internet access via 4G usually
works well, even though there are noticeable bufferbloat effects
for those who know how to look.
But when there is a significantly higher number of mobile users,
e.g., because of a soccer game or some other event with large
attendance, latency goes up and reaches several seconds with just
light network usage.
Thanks,
Erik
